Capco Response

Thank you for your positive feedback on teaming and team events at Capco, and on our commitment to Diversity and Inclusion under the Be Yourself At Work banner. The firm has been pursuing a growth agenda under the current leadership since we became an independent firm. The success of that agenda and the way in which growth has fuelled opportunities for development, progression and mobility in the firm and enabled our people to work on more leading edge projects with high profile clients, has been broadly welcomed by our people. The rapidity of this growth has resulted in some challenges for our back office functions to keep up and deliver the high quality services to staff to which we are committed. We are now addressing this challenge with significant investment in a One Capco agenda to level up the support available to our businesses across the globe.

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
